The key to G.I.Joe is the requirement to join the team that enjoys secret adventures with lasers and ninjas is “be a lunatic in your field”

Budo’s name is KYLE, a 4th generation American fan of Harleys and heavy metal. Got his ancestor’s swords for his birthday and found a hobby to be normal about.

BUDO! Full samurai mode. How cool is that? How great that you can change out his gear.
The original figure came in 1988, which was arguably my favorite year, but who can choose?

He joins Crystal Ball in the “holy shit the went hard” category of Classified, in which a guy that wasn’t particularly popular is given the extra creative effort to crank up the cool and weird to become one of the best.

I am anal enough to slightly wish that the other helmet was shaped a bit more like his vintage art, but I’m guessing sometime decided that a nose guard isn’t very authentic for this style of helmet and Kyle is, if anything, a history nerd.

Budo not only has 2 sets of armor, he’s also got a nice build that works well for posing with no armor, as well as this head with his hair down, and a nice scarf

I swapped his boots left to right so the shit guards wouldn’t go insane places when the ankle tilts were used.

Good morning. I've officially hit the age where all my joints just start popping if I don't move them for more than 20 minutes…

The insane Ross drops have finally started hitting SC in Ernest.

I'm gonna wind up with the whole Acolyte & Skeleton Crew casts because of this store and my need for background extras.

I have no interest in ether of these but still neat to see.

Only one Tarn, grabbed it gor myself because this will probably be my last chance to get him at a non insane price.

Almost got him, but he was the same price as Tarn and I kinda felt like I should only do one or the other.

Absolute Icon. Probably touched an incalculable number of lives with his art, I've had it hanging in my rooms multiple times throughout my childhood. Hope he's resting well.

Mudslide

Never really cared for this trope, doing it with Clayface felt a bit trait.

Good morning. Life is a sandbox, so make your own game and play nice.

Seeing these two side by side in alt mode really makes me feel like two of my major priorities for Retro Toy Con this year should be the autobots united set and a G1 Sideswipe so I can have two complete sets of the brothers.

Just watched a Cybertruck cut through the parking lot of a pet salon to get around a red light at a busy intersection, going about 35 mph. I see a lot of fucky driving while doordashing, but there's a motherfucker that needs their legs broken by the mob.

First non franchise film (Unless you count King adaptations as a franchise of sorts) I've been legitimately excited enough about to want to see in theaters in at least a few years, here's hoping it doesn't disappoint. youtu.be/UsmiRIozzvw?...

Shadow of the Bat

Wow, two Geats pics in a row. It's almost like I really liked that show and it had a lot of good moments for screencaps or something. Also, this is a solid but only just origin for everyone's second favorite Batgirl.
